[Hamlib-developer] Question on rigctrl.exe

[heinemme <hei...@ya...>]

Hallo,

I am trying to set my Kenwood TS590S with rigctl.exe

==============================================================
When I do this (below), the rig is not set at all, but I get
no error. When retrieving the values afterwards, I get an error.

rigctl -m 231 -r COM4 F 1234567 M USB 0

rigctl -m 231 -r COM4 f m
get_freq: error = Invalid parameter
get_mode: error = Protocol error

===============================================================

===============================================================
Now I do the same with -vvvvv. The rig is properly set and the
retrieval of values afterwards shows no error.

rigctl -m 231 -r COM4 -vvvvv F 1234567 M AM 0

What is the difference? Why do I need -vvvvv to set the rig?
